Endless Potential on almost 5 Acres! Tucked away at the back of the property for ultimate privacy, this gated ranchette estate offers a rare opportunity to create your dream home exactly as you envision it. Formerly a beautiful, modern 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence with a 2-car garage, the home is now fully gutted—providing a true blank slate for renovation, redesign, or a custom rebuild. Built with quality in mind, the original structure features reinforced 2x6 framing, designed for durability and longevity. The layout was thoughtfully planned with an open-concept design, large windows for natural light, 8’ ceilings on the first floor, and a dramatic 10’ wall with cathedral ceilings upstairs. Existing infrastructure adds tremendous value, including plumbing prepped for a jacuzzi or sauna, three septic tanks, and a recently installed irrigation system. Whether you're an investor, builder, or homeowner, this owner financed property offers the ability to make your dream come true.
